Support the implementation of Smart Factory and Industry 4.0 automation initiatives within a manufacturing environment.
Troubleshoot and program PLCs to ensure reliable operation of automated equipment and manufacturing systems.
Interpret and work from electrical schematics to diagnose issues and support equipment integration and modifications.
Contribute to the design, implementation, and optimization of AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) systems.
Support the deployment, integration, and performance of AS/RS (Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems) within the facility.
Assist with manufacturing systems integration, including WMS, MES, and industrial IoT solutions.
Use AutoCAD to review, update, and maintain electrical and controls-related drawings and documentation.
Provide hands-on controls support on the production floor, including startup, commissioning, and troubleshooting of automated equipment.
Coordinate and execute automation projects, balancing technical tasks with project planning and progress tracking.
Collaborate closely with engineering leadership, project stakeholders, vendors, and system integrators to align requirements and resolve issues.
Manage vendor and third-party integrator activities, ensuring deliverables meet technical and operational expectations.
Support large-scale automation launches, including preparation, testing, validation, and post-launch stabilization.
Participate in cross-functional meetings to communicate project status, technical risks, and mitigation plans.
Adapt work focus from a mix of project coordination and hands-on support to primarily hands-on responsibilities as launch activities increase.
Contribute to continuous improvement efforts by identifying opportunities to enhance automation reliability, performance, and integration.

Essential Skills

Demonstrated experience in controls engineering within a manufacturing environment.
Strong PLC troubleshooting and programming skills, including experience with Omron PLCs.
